YEREVAN, August 6. /ARKA/. Armenian Prime Minister Tigran Sargsyan
outlined the main demands to activity of customs warehouses.

"Our common goal is to sharply improve the quality of services provided
by customs warehouses. The goal can be achieved through joint efforts
of customs bodies and organizers of warehouses," Sargsyan stressed
at the government’s working session also attended by supervisors
of warehouses.

The premier said all the government actions must be clear and
predictable.

"First we must rule out any wholesale or retail sale from warehouses,"
the premier said. Besides, the territories of warehouses must be
clearly isolated. If supervisors fail to isolate their territories
before the deadline, their licenses will be revoked. The practice
of receiving and removal of goods from warehouses must be ruled out
as well.

Besides, the premier stressed the necessity of regulating issues
connected with maintenance of safety rules. The premier also said
conditions for self-declaration should be created. Warehouses
need technical improvement which requires investments from
supervisors.
